`Can anyone help me with how to replace the oil seal on the front axle of a Cub Cadet 5234D tractor? I have the housing off and everything apart. I am stuck or cannot get the bearings off of the housing kingpin. I do not want to damage the bearings by hammering them to hard to remove. Are the bearings stamped on? There is no lock ring or anything holding it on that I can see. Or do I just need to hit it harder? Thanks for any guidance on this.

I used an electric hammer/drill with a pointed shank and it was a bear to get out. I had the housing in a holder and carefully went at it. My only booboo was to put one of the seals back in upside down because at the time I wasnt sure which way it went ....
